The station is now focusing on rock-learning artists of the 70s and 80s as “Timeless Hits of the 70s, 80s and More.” RadioInsight writes that core artists include Elton John, Fleetwood Mac, Billy Joel, The Eagles, John Mellencamp, Bob Seger, Steely Dan, REO Speedwagon, the Steve Miller Band and Tom Petty. WFGR's format adjustment and rebranding began on July 3.
Townsquare Media Michigan VP/Content Eric Meier will host middays on the station. Cluster Production Director and WGRD-FM midday host Janna Hoke will follow in afternoons. The station’s morning show will be jockless outside of news and weather updates from WXMI-TV.
